Men of a Certain Age

I've never been a huge fan of Ray Romano. He's OK, just not my cup of tea. It was with this prejudice that I reluctantly tuned into his new TNT series, "Men of a Certain Age". It stars Romano along with Scott Bakula and Andre Braugher as 3 lifelong friends now in their 40's that sit around a table at their local diner swapping stories.

Sounds riveting, doesn't it?

Well much to my surprise it's actually good! The first few episodes were slow and drawn out. I suppose it was necessary to establish the characters and their various back stories, but it didn't exactly grab your attention and earn a place in the DVR lineup. But last night's episode, "Go With the Flow", was pure gold and gave much hope for what lies ahead.



Here's a couple reviews from  TV Squad and  TVaholic.

Men of a Certain Age has rightfully earned a coveted spot on The South 40 DVR. Check it out Monday nights on TNT.
